Hi, Am I right that in Caml/O'Caml, exceptions and open statements always occur at top-level (by top-level I mean not in a let .. in block)? What I mean is: in SML one can say let open List exception LocalExc of string in (* in here List is open and I can use LocalExc *) There doesn't seem to be any equivalent in Caml. Just checking if I'm missing something. I realize that the scope of "open" and exception can be limited to a structure, but I was looking for an even smaller scope. Thanks. Adam -- Adam P.
